The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority has extended the date by which firms must implement Brexit contingency plans following the extension of the Brexit deadline from October 31, 2019 to January 31, 2020. Firms and funds should now notify the FCA for entry into the temporary permissions regime by January 30, 2020 and fund managers have until January 15, 2020 to notify the FCA if they wish to change their existing notification. Firms should continue to comply with transaction and trade reporting requirements under the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive and European Market Infrastructure Directive, respectively.
